Didn't delve too far into the site, but I like the overall style and layout. Looks like you've taken one of the modded Snitzes and made it into a high quality site.
I did notice one thing that could be a big deal. If you scroll down a little bit on the page then mouse over the menu, the sub menus end up quite a bit below the main menu. I didn't go into the code at all, but it looks like you use absolute positioning to determine where the submenus should go. For me, it's pretty glaring and distracting, but if you don't think it will affect your members, then it may not be something worth worrying about.
Good luck, and good site overall. |

Thanks muzishun for the feedback, I'm trying to recreate this but it seems to work OK from my end. I tried IE, Moz and FF. Maybe it's browser specific though, which one are you using?

Nice work. However I think that the box/table-look is a little bit "to much" especially when targeting non-engineers (although I understand that they ar welcome to). Please let me know if you do not understand what I am trying to say. |

Great work. Graphically perfect to my eye. "Quick Search" occupies a rather prominent position. I think "Search" is useful, but doesn't have much reader interest, at least not in the beginning.
Same thing for "Member Login" - it occupies a lot of realestate and offers little interest to the reader. I'd move it below "Main Menu". Readers will find it when they want it.
Aside from that, I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for showing what can be done with Snitz.

Strange. I can't duplicate the error. I am using Fx, but now the menus are working just fine. |

it must have been a one time thing then muzishun, thanks though and Ill keep an eye out for it in the next few weeks in case it reoccurs. Panhandler thanks for the comments and good words, as for the search that's for searching members in regards to gender and age. Being a dating website, I think that should be in a prominent position. Now on the other hand the universal login on the left can be moved to anywhere at anytime. On another note, I'm really interested in knowing how the upload image and thumbnailer works so if anyone wants to upload an image or two feel free. Just let me know if it worked OK from your end. (To do that, login with the snitz account and go to Personal Gallery on the main menu.) TIA
